As the introduction track to the album, “Jazzphonics” is my declaration to a commitment to the use of jazz in hip-hop and the sounds that bring the music alive. The song twist and turns from jazz piano to a rising scale baseline which embodies the true essence of jazz music with smooth scratches and...
[Verse 1]
B.L.A.C.K. J.A.Z.Z
It’s Black Jazz volume 2, MC
Funky DL, the Consist
Relay run between the studio and office generating profits
So you can’t stop this
Things are looking up so you can call DL an optimist
Reside in a metropolis
I’m stepping up with confidence
Thought it was obvious, I ain’t no politician but screw it, I’m 'bout to lobby this
Tic-tac-toe, I got the mic by the throat
And I’m gonna choke until it takes in everything I wrote
No joke, so I hope you got time to devote
If you ain’t, you can leave for me a promissory note
And that’s how I roll
Rocking microphones since twelve years old
Brazen and bold
I’m automatic on the mic like cruise control
I got the funk, got the rhythm, got the blues, the soul, it’s jazzphonics
[Chorus: Q-Tip & Funky DL]
The jazz (Jazzphonics)
The jazz (Jazzphonics)
Come on, who got the jazz? (Jazzphonics)
I got the jazz and I’ll whoop a rapper's ass
[Verse 2]
Yo, I got jazz in my bones, jazz in my soul, jazz in my tones and my flows
Jazz with a big band or jazz on my own
Jazz, obscure jazz or jazz well known
Jazz, I’m jazzy like Jeff
So right, not left
Jazz with a tenor, treble, bass clef
I’m loving right here but I’m 'bout to take steps
I’m one to a million, who wanna take bets?
I’m a sure shot, taking every chance when the door knocks
Worldwide record seller, cover more than four blocks
I’m hopeless at overlooking dopeness
The beat wizard, I put the hocus to the pocus
So don’t just hear this once and be careless, dunce
'Cause it’s the real deal, ain’t no stunts
I’m automatic on the mic like cruise control
I got the funk, got the rhythm, got the blues, the soul, it’s jazzphonics
[Chorus: Q-Tip & Funky DL]
The jazz (Jazzphonics)
The jazz (Jazzphonics)
Come on, who got the jazz? (Jazzphonics)
I got the jazz and I’ll whoop a rapper's ass
[Verse 3]
Think about each line, nice with the beat rhyme
Don’t wanna reach yours? Regardless, I’ma reach mine
I came to make great sounds for the people
So people calling me a Don like I’m Cheadle
A daredevil like I’m Evel Knievel
So picture me just like I’m sitting on an easel
I ain’t the type to talk gas like diesel
I’m sitting on the groove like a turntable needle
I’m here to kick it like no one does
A combination of the jazz and the hip-hop love
Automatic on the mic like cruise control
I got the funk, got the rhythm, got the blues, the soul, it’s jazzphonics
[Chorus: Q-Tip & Funky DL]
The jazz (Jazzphonics)
The jazz (Jazzphonics)
Come on, who got the jazz? (Jazzphonics)
I got the jazz and I’ll whoop a rapper's ass
